Brickbats to the JEA for its plan to offer discounted electric rates to companies that use lots of power. While the average consumer is told to conserve electricity, the city-owned utility is telling power hogs to move here and use lots of electricity and they'll give discounts. John Winkler of Concerned Taxpayers of Duval County calls the plan “corporate welfare.”
